JP Jenkins Ltd is an FCA-authorized and FCA-regulated (FRN 1037394) private securities marketplace headquartered in London, operating since 1991 as the UK's leading venue for trading shares in delisted, unquoted, and private companies. The platform operates two core venues: the Matched Bargain Facility (MBF), which provides continuous trading of shares in companies that have left public markets or are unlisted, and the Private Market, which hosts intermittent trading events for unquoted private companies under the UK's new PISCES (Private Intermittent Securities and Capital Exchange System) framework. Trades settle via the CREST electronic settlement system through a central counterparty arrangement, and the platform publishes the JP Jenkins 15 (JPJ 15) market index tracking listed securities.

The technology stack is centred on regulated market infrastructure rather than bespoke IP: CREST settlement, central counterparty clearing, FCA-regulated market rules, and integration with over 40 UK-regulated stockbrokers (including Hargreaves Lansdown, Rathbones, Investec, AJ Bell, and Winterflood). In November 2025, JP Jenkins became only the second FCA-approved PISCES platform operator after the London Stock Exchange, and in March 2026 it hosted the world's first PISCES liquidity event with QPLAY Ltd. Approximately 50–60 companies are listed across technology, energy, real estate, pharmaceuticals, retail, and financial services.

JP Jenkins generates revenue through transaction fees: 1.5% of the transaction price charged to both buyers and sellers, plus a £25 flat fee per trade, with potential additional Stamp Duty Reserve Tax (SDRT) on purchases. It serves four customer groups — companies seeking shareholder liquidity, investors buying/selling private shares via brokers, the broker network itself, and professional introducers — operating as a B2B2C platform with no direct retail distribution of its own. The firm has also begun commercializing its PISCES license by authorizing an investment firm to operate under its regulatory approval and has partnered with Ledgy for integrated equity management.

Novastar Hotel Group PLC joined the platform with a starting market capitalisation of GBP7.0 million, having recently acquired the Langham Hotel Eastbourne on England's south coast. The London-based company aims to build a portfolio of 25 hotels across the UK over the next five years under a hybrid hospitality model combining short-term rentals with traditional hotel rooms.RothschildandcoGrowth Equity UpdateQ1 2026 saw record growth equity fundraising with US raises hitting $246bn, surpassing the full-year 2025 total of $234bn, while Europe raised $18bn, up 60% year-on-year and the strongest quarter since 2021; OpenAI accounted for nearly half the US total with $122bn in fundraising. The UK launched its PISCES exchange for secondary trading in private companies in March 2026, with the London Stock Exchange and JP Jenkins conducting the first auctions, while the European Investment Fund announced the ETCI 2 initiative targeting a €15bn fund of funds to unlock up to €80bn in scale-up capital. Public markets have recovered from geopolitical tensions following an Iran ceasefire, with NASDAQ flat and S&P 500 down 1% since late February, despite deteriorating prospects for interest rates and corporate earnings.The Irish TimesAre shares in a company that delisted worth anything and how do I trade them?This is a reader Q&A column responding to an investor seeking guidance on trading shares in Datalex, an Irish software company that delisted from the Irish Stock Exchange on September 12, 2023 after years of financial difficulties. The company, which specialised in airline software, suffered a 60 per cent share collapse in 2019 following an accounting scandal and a further 75 per cent decline during the Covid pandemic. Shares now trade through JP Jenkins, an off-market platform for unlisted businesses, at approximately 30 cent, with trading costs likely to exceed any nominal profit for most long-term investors.WFWDevelopments in the London equity capital markets: PISCES and share digitisationThe Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) approved the London Stock Exchange (LSE) in August 2025 as the first operator of PISCES, a new regulated trading platform for unquoted shares, followed by a second approval for JP Jenkins in November 2025. The LSE's Private Securities Market (PSM) published final rules in February 2026 and announced its first transaction will occur on 25 March 2026.

The London Stock Exchange became the first approved PISCES operator in August 2025, followed by JP Jenkins in November 2025, and published its trading rules in February 2026. The platform enables existing shareholders to sell shares during intermittent trading windows without allowing companies to raise new capital, and transfers are exempt from UK stamp duty.CRSUK Living Sector 2026: Regulatory pressures, new trading platforms and more accessible public marketsThe article previews regulatory and market developments expected to shape the UK Living Sector (Purpose Built Student Accommodation and Build to Rent) in 2026, following resilient M&A activity in 2025 that included QuadReal's acquisition of Apollo's c.3,500-bed PBSA portfolio. Key regulatory changes include the phased implementation of the Renters' Rights Act from May 2026, second staircase requirements from September 2026, and new PISCES trading platforms (approved for London Stock Exchange Group and JP Jenkins) that will enable secondary trading for private companies. The piece also covers reforms to UK prospectus rules under POATRs and ongoing implementation of the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 identity verification requirements.Farrer & CoPISCES: how it operates and who will benefitThe Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has launched PISCES (Private Intermittent Securities and Capital Exchange System), a new regulated framework enabling secondary trading of shares in unquoted private companies in the UK.

The FCA, which published the rulebook for this new private market framework in June, said discussions remain ongoing with other potential operators as trading is expected to commence later this year. The new platform is designed to address a longstanding liquidity gap for growth companies and early investors, offering a pathway toward eventual public market flotation.
